February 24, 2012- Endurance Tag

Endurance is a LONG tagging game (hence the name).  Choose 3 students to be the taggers and give them noodles.  The other taggers line up on the other side of the gym.  I use the basketball baselines as the boundaries.  They must run to the other side without getting tagged.  If they make it to the other side (past the baseline) they are in a safe zone.  Each student is given 1 straw that they carry back to the starting line.  The object is to get as many straws as possible.  If someone is tagged they must exchange their straws for the tagger's noodle.  They are now the new tagger.  The game ends when all of the straws are taken.  Have students count up the amount of straws they have and return them to the teacher.

AGES: Kindergarten and up

EQUIPMENT: 3 tagging noodles, 300 straws (I buy a 100 pack and cut them into thirds), a bucket to hold the straws in.
